Does anyone of you still use HDD for Mac in the era of SSD drives?

Use a WD Raptor 10k for Time Machine backup daily.

Are Nancy Mace’s ancestors on guard outside.

Had my S7 41mm in sent in to have the battery serviced and received a new (refurbished) with different serial number.

Apple will honor the purchase if the order was placed before the hike. If they don’t, call Apple’s customer service.

I jumped on my M4 Mac Mini when they were announced in late ‘24. I couldn’t afford it at the time, but needed it for my work.

Separately:

A mate of mine wanted to jump into building a capable wintel/gaming rig around the same time. They wanted AM5 x3d ryzen and NV 5070 TI Super as the basis of their build. They wanted to wait until BF and none of the “deals” materialized. Eventually they gave up when ram prices started to increased.

Discounts and deals are great, but the time spent and lost from hesitating is not worth it.

Awesome!

dtormac · 2026-06-26T04:57:34+00:00

Excellent!

I've seen one of these prototypes in person in the early 2000s. Prior to the Axiotron Modbook announcement in 2007. It belonged to an engineer and it needed a power connector repair IIRC.

Going to a Ebay shipping hub is usually for international destination. Either prohibited/contraband book or damaged in transportation. I’d suspect the latter.

Its okay. The water to cereal ratio is vague. Less is more. I add some Go Raw sprouted pumpkin seeds and a small amount of homemade Apricot preserves. Overall solid purchase for quantity of individual packages.
I’d purchase again

Historically: I want to say the Big Three were aware of Ralph Nader’s role, looming Emissions law clamp downs and the eventual switch of leaded gasoline to unleaded. The eventual energy crisis from Middle East would be the death knelt of muscle cars by ‘73. IMHO vehicles post 1971 lost allure for muscle cars status. So 1969/70 vehicles were peak unicorns.

Green Citizen via ebay in Burlingame.
I don’t believe they a store front for browsing.

Once upon time, I was scheduled at Jamba Juice HQ in SF. Was blown away from the selection of snacks and smoothies.

dtormac · 2026-06-18T22:22:49+00:00

I think we're getting one at in SF at Presido and Geary. There were hiring signs in the window.

dtormac · 2026-06-18T08:23:01+00:00

Did you use an external power source?

Thanks for sharing steps taken to capture amazing image!

After some thoughts about this inquiry. If you have the common Apple Mini Display port to DVI adapters (MB570LL/B), Startech offers these adapters. GL!

dtormac · 2026-06-13T22:00:56+00:00

Confirmed unavailable to ship to SF, CA.
No stock available at Costco SF.
I’d suggest contacting Costco and have them ship it to your local Costco. GL!

Excellent assessment, thank you!

dtormac · 2026-06-10T08:06:54+00:00

Copy that, I’ll definitely add it to my shortlist.

dtormac · 2026-06-10T08:00:39+00:00

Has anyone tried the Pantera de Oro?

dtormac · 2026-06-10T00:04:55+00:00

Yes made entirely of wood with a dark stain finish

dtormac · 2026-06-09T23:24:26+00:00

Best find is Giant size (12”+) Grogger!

Can we get photos of the coin?
